Graduating in a pandemic was a surprise for everyone. But it is important that everyone stays safe and remains healthy. I'm sorry to all my friends, classmates, and the first generational students who have worked so hard to graduate and walk the stage, but remember this- just because you don't have the opportunity to walk the stage doesn't make your achievements any less. You have worked extremely hard to get here and you should be tremendously proud of your accomplishments because you survived your 4+ years of college!

Here are 6 gift ideas that I came up with for an OU college senior. Of course, there are tons of better gifts like anything that is signed by Lincoln Riley or Baker Mayfield, but I wanted all of these gift ideas to be affordable for everyone and that's how I chose them.

1. Mask

Still representing OU, even if you are graduating in quarantine. And if you don't have a mask, you should probably think about ordering one soon. Not trying to throw any shade, just being honest.

3. Watch

A beautiful leather watch with the OU logo in the center of the clock. There are several different versions of this for girls and guys.

4. Tassel necklace

This is a simple necklace that you can have a mini tassel to remind you of your accomplishments no matter where you go.

5. A Jersey

This is a Baker Mayfield jersey but it could be for any athlete. Jersey's will forever be in style and if you buy your graduate this, I can almost guarantee that they are going to love it!

6. Anything with the word Alumni on it

Because they've earned it, alumni status.

I'm a Sooner born and Sooner bred and when I die, I'll be Sooner dead.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
